I am against making the LGBTQ+ flag an official city flag. Regardless of how you feel about
LGBT, this is not ok for the following reasons…
This flag represents a specific group within the city and adopting it as the official flag
would go against the idea of civic neutrality, potentially making some residents feel
unrepresented or excluded. This result is hypocritical to what the LGBTQ community
promotes, which is equality and inclusion.
This move would be divisive rather than unifying.
It would also be politicization of public spaces.
Thank you,Jennifer Cook of Bozeman
